Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community and Merry Christmas.

Hello Unbroken, when trying to add a new Alias if it is not an existing account, you will have to create a new Alias.

Try following the procedures below.

Add or remove an email alias in Outlook.com

the account connected to my old gamertag is a microsoft account, but it doesn't have @outlook or @hotmail) and the new email account that I want to be connected to my old gamertag is also a microsoft account but @gmail, not @outlook or @hotmail

Thanks but my contact preferences are already set to my hotmail account, the problem is that I still get some notifications sent to my old gmail account.

I no longer want my gmail account associated with my xbox live account and I can't see how to remove it.

Do you know if there is a way to merge the accounts then? My old email address, that is also a gmail account, needed to be changed due to security problems. I changed my email and want to be able to keep my Gamertag but using the new email address. My goal is to get all accounts attached to the old email changed to the new one for security reasons. I really appreciate your willingness to answer my questions!

my account was tied to my old phone number i don't have access to anymore

oh and yeah i also have the old phone number that is on the microsoft account still tied as a secondary number on my gmail account, that also being the original gmail of the microsoft account, there is no way that is not enough proof.
